Doris Thompson
Lilian Doris Thompson MBE OBE (née Bean; 12 January 1903 – 23 June 2004)〔Kenneth Shenton (1 July 2004) (The Independent: Doris Thompson obituary ). The Independent〕 was a British businessperson who was the managing director and chairman of Blackpool Pleasure Beach.
==Career highlights==
Doris Thompson became a director at Blackpool Pleasure Beach in 1929, immediately after the death of her father, whilst her husband, Leonard Thompson became managing director and chairman.〔 Whilst she initially focused on her young family, she gradually, behind the scenes, assisted more and more in the development of the park, especially throughout the 1930s which saw the opening of the Fun House, Grand National and the introduction of the famous ice show.
When Leonard Thompson died in 1976, Doris Thompson succeeded him as chairmain of the Pleasure Beach, whilst her son Geoffrey Thompson became managing director. She enjoyed her role in the development and running of the park hugely, and could often be found donning her headscarf and hurtling around the latest ride. In 1979, she rode the Revolution 360-degree looping coaster, having first had a full medical check-up.〔 Almost 25 years later, she rode her final ride, the Spin Doctor at the age of 99 years.
